On Wednesday afternoon we got some news that the Blackhawks and Nick Leddy were getting close to a new deal. Then his agent tweeted this out.

Then the Hawks made it official by announcing that they have come to terms on a new two-year deal with the young 22 year-old defenseman. No financial details have been released as of yet but I would expect it to be in the $2-2.5 million per year. So a deal worth $4-5 million over the two years.
